RIP v1/2
OSPF
BGP

Some networking applications such as real-time control

or VoIP (voice over IP) require predictable arrival times for
Ethernet frames. Switches can introduce latency in times
of heavy network traffic due to the internal queues that
buffer frames and then transmit on a first come first serve
basis. ROXII supports Class of Service in accordance
with IEEE 802.1p that allows time critical traffic to jump
ahead to the front of the queue thus minimizing latency
and reducing jitter to allow such demanding applications to
operate correctly. ROXII allows priority classification by
port, tags, MAC address, and IP type of service (ToS). A
configurable weighted fair queuing algorithm controls how
frames are emptied from the queues.

Cyber Security
Cyber security is an urgent issue in many industries where
advanced automation and communications networks play
a crucial role in mission critical applications and where high
reliability is of paramount importance. Key ROXII features
that address security issues at the local area network level
include:
Passwords - Multi-level user passwords secures switch
against unauthorized configuration
SSH / SSL - Extends capability of password protection
to add encryption of passwords and data as they cross
the network
Enable / Disable Ports - Capability to disable ports so that
traffic can not pass
802.1Q VLAN - Provides the ability to logically segregate
traffic between predefined ports on switches
SNMPv3 - encrypted authentication and access security
HTTPS - for secure access to the web interface

Enhanced Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (eRSTP)

RuggedCom eRSTP allows the creation of fault-tolerant
ring and mesh Ethernet networks that incorporate redundant
links that are pruned to prevent loops. eRSTP yields
worst-case fault recovery1 of 5ms times the bridge diameter
and allows rings of up to 160 switches. For example, a
ring of ten switches will have fault recovery times under
50ms. eRSTP implements both STP and RSTP to ensure
interoperability with commercial switches unlike other
proprietary ring solutions.

www.RuggedCom.com

VLAN (IEEE 802.1Q)

Virtual local area networks (VLAN) allow the segregation
of a physical network into separate logical networks with
independent broadcast domains. A measure of security
is provided since hosts can only access other hosts on
the same VLAN and traffic storms are isolated. ROXII
supports 802.1Q tagged Ethernet frames and VLAN
trunks. Port based classification allows legacy devices to
be assigned to the correct VLAN. GVRP support is also
provided to simplify the configuration of the switches on
the VLAN.

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)

SNMP provides a standardized method, for network
management stations, to interrogate devices
from different vendors. SNMP versions supported by
ROXII are v1,v2c, and v3. SNMPv3 in particular
provides security features (such as authentication,
privacy, and access control) not present in earlier SNMP
versions. ROXII also supports numerous standard
MIBs (Management Information Base) allowing for easy
integration with any network management system (NMS).
A feature of SNMP supported by ROXII is the ability
to generate traps upon system events. RuggedNMS,
the RuggedCom management solution, can record traps
from multiple devices providing a powerful network
troubleshooting tool. It also provides a graphical
visualization of the network and is fully integrated with
all RuggedCom products.

NETCONF Configuration Interface

The NETCONF configuration interface will allow
administrators to set device parameters and receive device
updates through the use of XML based commands. This
standard, supported by multiple vendors, makes it possible
to greatly simplify the task of network management.
1e
 RSTP fault recovery times may be approximated as follows:
For 100 Mbps, fault recovery performance is <5ms/hop
For 1,000 Mbps, fault recovery performance is <5ms/hop + 20ms

ROXII Features
NTP (Network Time Protocol)

HTML Web Browser User Interface

NTP automatically synchronizes the internal clock of all

ROXII devices on the network. This allows for correlation
of time stamped events for troubleshooting.

ROXII provides a simple, intuitive user interface for

configuration and monitoring via a standard graphical
web browser or via standard telcom UI. All system
parameters include detailed on-line help to make setup
a breeze. ROXII presents a common look and feel and
standardized configuration process allowing easy migration
to other RuggedCom managed products.

Port Rate Limiting

ROXII supports configurable rate limiting per port to
limit unicast and multicast traffic. This can be essential to
managing precious network bandwidth for service
providers. It also provides edge security for denial of
service (DoS) attacks.

Broadcast Storm Filtering

Broadcast storms wreak havoc on a network and can
cause attached devices to malfunction. This could be
disastrous on a network with mission critical equipment.
ROXII limits this by filtering broadcast frames with a
user-defined threshold.

Port Mirroring
ROXII can be configured to duplicate all traffic on one port
to a designated mirror port. When combined with a network
analyzer, this can be a powerful troubleshooting tool.

Port Configuration and Status

ROXII allows individual ports to be hard configured for
speed, duplex, auto-negotiation, flow control and more. This
allows proper connection with devices that do not negotiate
or have unusual settings. Detailed status of ports with alarm
and SNMP trap on link problems aid greatly in system
troubleshooting.

Port Statistics and RMON (Remote Monitoring)

ROXII provides continuously updating statistics per port
that provide both ingress and egress packet and byte
counters as well as detailed error figures. Also provided is
full support for the RMON statistics, history, alarms, and
event groups. RMON allows for very sophisticated data
collection, analysis and detection of traffic patterns.

Event Logging and Alarms

ROXII records all significant events to a non-volatile
system log allowing forensic troubleshooting. Events
include link failure and recovery, unauthorized access,
broadcast storm detection, and self-test diagnostics among
others. Alarms provide a snapshot of recent events that
have yet to be acknowledged by the network administrator.
An external hardware relay is de-energized during the
presence of critical alarms allowing an external controller
to react if desired.

Command Line Interface (CLI)

A command line interface used in conjunction with
remote shell to automate data retrieval, configuration
updates, and firmware upgrades. A powerful Telecom
Standard style Command Line Interface (CLI), which will
be familiar to users of Cisco XR, allows expert users the
ability to selectively retrieve or manipulate any parameters
the device has to offer.

Link Backup
Link backup provides an easily configured means of raising
a backup link upon the failure of a designated main link.
The main and backup links can be Ethernet, Cellular, T1/
E1, DDS, ADSL or T3. The feature can back up to multiple
remote locations, managing multiple main: backup link
relationships. The feature can also back up a permanent
high speed WAN link to a permanent low speed WAN link
and can be used to migrate the default route from the main
to the backup link.
OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)
OSPF is a routing protocol that determines the best path for
routing IP traffic over a TCP/IP network based on link states
between nodes and several quality parameters. OSPF is an
interior gateway protocol (IGP), which is designed to work
within an autonomous system. It is also a link state protocol,
meaning that the best route is determined by the type and
speed of the inter-router links, not by how many router
hops they are away from each other (as in Distance-Vector
routing protocols, i.e. Rip and RIP II).
BGP (Border Gateway Protocol)
BGPv4 is a path vector routing protocol where routing
decisions are made based on the policies or rules laid out
by the network administrator. It is typically used where
networks are multihomed between multiple Internet Service
Providers, or in very large internal networks where internal
gateway protocols do not scale sufficiently.
